Merchant power plants differ from traditional rate-based power plants as to: 1) how they are financed and 2) where they sell the electricity they generate. A merchant power plant is funded by investors and sells electricity in the competitive wholesale power market. Since a merchant plant is not required to serve any specific retail consumers‚ consumers are not obligated to pay for the construction‚ operations or maintenance of the plant. A traditional rate-based power plant‚ on the other hand

A diesel engine (also known as a compression-ignition engine and sometimes capitalized as Diesel engine) is an internal combustion engine that uses the heat of compression to initiate ignition to burn the fuel‚ which is injected into the combustion chamber. This is in contrast to spark-ignition engines such as a petrol engine (gasoline engine) or gas engine (using a gaseous fuel as opposed to gasoline)‚ which uses a spark plug to ignite an air-fuel mixture. The engine was developed by Rudolf Diesel

“Energy and Efficiency analysis of 210MWe coal base Thermal Power Plant with running parameters” Goutam Khankari‚DVC‚Kolkata. INTRODUCTION Power projects are essentially capital intensive. Not only they involve a highly initial cost which is around Rs. 4.5 to 5.0 crores per MW for coal-based plants but also huge operation cost. The running expenses of a 210MW thermal power station may range around thirty crores every month and usually about 80% of this goes towards the fuel cost. Not only fuel

The Salem Harbor power plant is a serious threat to the public health and it may only get worse. There is a severe concern about toxic air emissions from the prior waste disposal practices. That is why Bush’s energy plan doesn’t quite work? In the Salem Evening News it says that‚ "The Bush plan only pays lip service to the threat of global warming‚ the greatest environmental danger of our time." (Kert Davies) The Bush plan may of solved the threat of global warming‚ but in reality Pollution

Fukushima Power Plant Nuclear power plants now account for 14% of the world’s electricity supply [1]. These power plants differ only by the fuel used from oil coal or gas power plants. The concept is otherwise the same. Large nuclei become unstable when struck with a neutron‚ his causes it to split apart and also produce neutrons which are fire out. This then causes a chain reaction and other nuclei are split up. This splitting of nuclei is called nuclear fission and it provides heat which heats

nuclear power plants? Energy is a controversial topic in the United States and the rest of the world. More than half of the energy we have comes from coal burning power plants. President Obama is working along with government agencies to build more nuclear power plants in the United States. Nuclear power plants produce large quantities of energy creating no air pollution and very little water pollution in the form of thermal pollution. The United States should build more Nuclear power plants‚ they
